The 98% confidence interval for the average amount spent by 10 to 11-year-olds on a trip to the mall is 23.36 ± 2.933.
How to calculate the confidence interval and its critical value?The confidence interval for a given level of percentage is given by
C. I = μ ± Z(σ/√n)
Where,
μ - mean, σ - standard deviation, n - sample size, and z - critical value.
The critical value is calculated by
step 1: 100% - (the confidence level)
step 2: Converting the step 1 result into decimal value
step 3: dividing the step 2 result by 2
This is indicated by α/2. So, from the normal distribution table, the z-value at α/2 is said to be the required critical value and denoted by Z_(α/2) or Z.
Calculation:It is given that,
A survey of several 10 to 11-year-olds recorded the following amounts spent on a trip to the mall: $18.31,$25.09,$26.96,$26.54,$21.84,$21.46
Sample size n = 6
Step 1: Finding the mean for the given amounts of the survey:
Mean μ = (18.31 + 25.09 + 26.96 + 26.54 + 21.84 + 21.46)/6
= 23.36
Step 2: Finding the standard deviation:
Standard deviation σ = √summation(x - mean)²/n
On calculating, we get σ = 3.09
Step 3: Finding the critical value:
It is given that the confidence level is 98%
So, (100% - 98%) = 2%
Converting into decimal gives 0.02
So, α/2 = 0.02/2 = 0.01
Thus, at 0.01, the critical value Z = 2.326
Step 4: Constructing the confidence interval:
C.I = 23.36 ± (2.326) × (3.09/√6)
= 23.36 ± (2.326 × 1.261)
= 23.36 ± 2.933
So, the lower bound = 23.36 - 2.933 = 20.427
the upper bound = 23.36 + 2.933 =26.293
Therefore, the 98% confidence interval lies from 20.427 to 26.293.

Ming's school is selling tickets to a play. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 8 adult tickets and 1 student ticket for a total of $95. The school took in $71 on the second day by selling 2 adult tickets and 7 student tickets. Define two variables for this situation. Write a system of equations to represent this situation. What is the price each of one adult ticket and one student ticket?
Answer:
Your answer.
8x + y = 95.........(1)
2x + 7y = 71........... (2)
Y = 95-8x........ (3)
Put this value in eq 2
Then x = 11

Find the surface area of the
triangular prism.
10 ft.
3 ft.
3 ft
Given:
The figure of a triangular prism.
To find:
The surface area of the triangular prism.
Solution:
We know that, a triangular prism contains 2 congruent triangular surface and 3 rectangular surface.
Triangles have base 3 ft and height 2 ft.
Area of a triangle is
[tex]Area=\dfrac{1}{2}\times base\times height[/tex]
[tex]A_1=\dfrac{1}{2}\times (3)\times (2)[/tex]
[tex]A_1=3[/tex]
Area of congruent triangles are congruent. So,
[tex]A_1=A_2=3\text{ sq. units}[/tex]
Now the three rectangular surface have dimensions 10 by 3, 10 by 3 and 10 by 3 because the triangles are equilateral and the length of the prism is 10 ft.
Area of a rectangle is
[tex]Area=Length\times width[/tex]
[tex]A_3=10\times 3[/tex]
[tex]A_3=30[/tex]
Dimensions of all three rectangles are same, therefore there areas are equal.
[tex]A_3=A_4=A_5=30[/tex]
Now, the total surface area of the prism is
[tex]A=A_1+A_2+A_3+A_4+A_5[/tex]
[tex]A=3+3+30+30+30[/tex]
[tex]A=96[/tex]
Therefore, the total surface area of the prism is 96 sq. ft.

how to the medium in the dot line????!! I don't want my mom to be mad at my grade please!!!!!!
Thank you whoever helps me!
Answer: To find the median, count the dots from left to right until you find the middle value.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so first it's not a dot line it's a dot plot. Second, let's define what a medium is. The medium is the "middle" of a sorted list of numbers. To find the Median, place the numbers in value order and find the middle number. Example: find the Median of {13, 23, 11, 16, 15, 10, 26}. The middle number is 15, so the median is 15. Tip to find the median from a list of value ordered numbers every time cross a number from each side. For example, if you cross 13 from above also cross 26 and if you cross 23 then also cross 10.
Back to your original question of how to find the medium on a dot plot you need to take all the numbers from your dotted line put them in order even if they are repeated and then cross each one on each side from right to left. Also remember if you cross out all the numbers right and left and end up with two numbers left then take them and add them and then divide by 2 and that will be the median.
An example is attached on here in order to help you understand what I am saying. Hope this helps. Your welcome and I hope you make your mama proud.
A medical provider is doing a study to determine the average time spent waiting before an appointment. The current average wait time is 34 minutes, which is 15% shorter than the average was when the study started. What was the average wait time then?
Answer:
39.1 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Current wait time = 34 minutes
Current wait time is 15% shorter than average wait time when study started.
Average wait time when study started :
15% of current wait time :
0.15 * 34
= 5.1 minutes
Average wait time when study started :
34 minutes + 5.1 minutes
= 39.1 minutes
